Patterns in July

PATTERNS is now firmly on the map as the seaside mecca's hotspot of choice for the discerning clubber, having consistently delivered throughout the launch month of May and continuing into June. July offers even more.

Credited by Radio 1’s Gilles Peterson (after he played there in May) as “re-shaping club culture in Brighton”, Patterns’ unique ethos is truly displayed in its diverse and forward-thinking programming. 4th July sees their upstairs space taken over by Shogun Audio, who’ll be presenting a fresh showcase from one of the most exceptional producers around, Icicle: Entropy Live ft. Skittles with DJ support from Technimatic, Primitive People, De:Tune and JuJu. Bristol-based rock band Area 11, a combination of Western rock guitar traditions with Eastern culture will be introducing their ‘Gaijin Rock’ experience early doors in the basement. On Saturday 5th July, an eclectic selection will be shaking things up with the Alt.Promotions crew delivering an injection of heavy metal and rock with Acrania plus support. Seasoned selectors Marquis Hawkes and Jon K take over the basement for some serious heads down business.

The following Friday (10th July) sees Koreless deliver his much revered live show along with a dose of Montreal’s Jacques Greene’s infectious blend of house and RnB. Joining them is NTS’s Charlie Bones and Everything Is Everything. An equally killer line-up on the Saturday features R&S stalwart and cosmic beatsmith Space Dimension Controller accompanied by everyone's favourite funk fueller Max Graef. On Friday 17th July the team mix it up some more welcoming original turntablist J Rocc! If Hip Hop’s not your thing, then look no further than Phantasy Sound’s return to Southern shores for their first showcase at the new venue on Saturday, bringing new signee Kamera (live), U and of course the imprint chief himself, Erol Alkan.

Edging towards the end of the month, Patterns gets on a garage tip and welcomes two legends to the club going back to back for the duration, Wookie & DJ Q! Expect anything from M-Dubs to MK, DJ Luck to Zak Toms. Support comes from Freerange DJs downstairs, Dagger Brighton and pals upstairs. The following night Eglo Records driving force Floating Points helms the decks accompanied by the don like Dego, founder of 4Hero and the 2000Black collective. Titeknots and Tru Thoughts will be running things up on the ground floor. Closing the month, there’s a special Rhythm Junction throw-down with man of the moment Hunee - an extraordinary selector with a unique energy behind the decks; this one is not to be missed!
